Chapter 118: Gods are busy
The statue of the Trisom God was destroyed, but no equipment was dropped.
Lu Yao was slightly regretful, but not surprised.
Even if the opponent had items, they would definitely ignite their faith in life and death situations for battle. Unless they were instantly killed in a lightning-fast battle... But that would consume a lot of faith and might not be worth it.
Through multiple attempts, Lu Yao gradually developed a new strategy for divine battles.
First, let the apostles with thick blood take turns in a war of attrition, consuming the opponent’s faith and also attracting attention. Then, let the snowmen secretly steal the fire of faith and items, maximizing the spoils of war.
Lu Yao opened the new item obtained by the snowmen.
...
【Wild Horn】: +1 faith/hour. Blow the horn to call nearby creatures closer to the horn.
...
The Cannibal Crab could be attracted by this item, so it seemed to be quite useful.
Lu Yao thought about it and realized that the horn ability could also be useful for the islanders. It was a small artifact that could be used in the early stages of the game.
When entering the abyss, it could be used to lure monsters.VIssịT n0(v)eL/b(i)(n).com for the best novel reading experience
Lu Yao added it to his inventory.
Next was the final step.
Isabella landed on the island riding a magic staff.
After performing the Last Prayer, she summoned the Black Sphere of the Dead and began patiently questioning.
"Sir, they said that the statue appeared not long ago and was washed ashore by the waves."
"At that time, there were only a few people on this island. People came here to collect wood and grass, and they discovered the statue. The statue brought fish from the sea, stopped storms, and blocked the scorching sun..."
Isabella translated simultaneously.
"Later, the first group of people started to worship the statue. At this time, the first prophet was born. The prophet received revelations, and this deity was called the Trisom God."
"Not long after, fierce green crabs crawled ashore and came to the statue."
"The prophet told everyone that the deity asked them to feed these servants of the gods, which were the large crabs."
"The crabs had a huge appetite and could never be satisfied."
"In the end, the believers were also eaten by the large crabs. Before they died, the believers realized that they were just livestock used by the deity to feed the crabs."
"People kept coming to this island, repeating this process."
...
Lu Yao began to review the battle.
The Trisom God, who raised the crabs, followed a monster flow, focusing on efficiency.
The reproductive rate of the Cannibal Crabs far exceeded that of humans, and they could also generate wisdom and faith through cannibalism. This made the Trisom God consider them as core believers for cultivation. A large population could drive a large amount of faith.
If given enough time, they might really be able to create a path of the Crab God.
In this battle, there was one point that caught Lu Yao’s attention.
He switched perspectives and arrived at the Salt City Temple.
Inside the temple, the White God lazily lay on the ground, surrounded by various meats, wheat cakes, potatoes, grapes, and wheat beer. It wandered in the ocean of food, opening its mouth and sucking in a pile of food.
As soon as Lu Yao arrived, the White God immediately trembled and stood up - although it was still in the form of a wild boar with four legs.
Unlike the apostles, the gods could feel the gaze of the true god, which saved Lu Yao a lot of effort.
"Great God, you’re here."
The White God showed a flattering smile symbol above its head.
Lu Yao typed and asked about the situation he wanted to confirm.
"Um, Great God, this... the strength of miracles also depends on the consumption of faith. 1 point of faith can only cause 1 point of miracle."
"I dare not ask for your forgiveness for a follower who once betrayed you."
"I just want to reflect on myself in the rest of my life, spread your faith, and learn to face all pain calmly. In pain, learn to see your glory and kindness, and thus complete my unclean atonement."
Lu Yao noticed that Salt Long’s personal panel had also changed.
...
【Salt Clan LV7】Salt Long
Health: 80/80
Mana: 15/15

Defense: 4
Speed: 3
【Longevity】
Has a longer lifespan.
【Martyr】

【Ascetic】

...
Lu Yao almost forgot about Salt Long.
Honestly, although Salt Long caused some chaos, it was really a trivial matter in Lu Yao’s eyes. After introducing the White God, he completely forgot about Salt Long and his group of heretical believers.
Gods are busy, they don’t have time to deal with these trivial matters.
However, Salt Long obviously took it very seriously.
He first completed the pilgrimage, then came to confess devoutly, and transformed into an ascetic.
Lu Yao admired him a bit.
Not bad, young man, at least you have responsibility, you didn’t run away.
So.
Lu Yao clicked【No】.
He always wanted to see what would happen if he didn’t transform into a hero.
Would the little man get angry? Would he be disappointed? Or would he become morally corrupted?
A painful expression symbol appeared above Salt Long’s head.
Then he showed a joyful expression.
Lu Yao was puzzled.
Salt Long’s level instantly rose to LV10.
Damn.
So that’s what an ascetic means!
The more the gods punish them, the more excited and grown they become!
Lu Yao was greatly shocked.
